Show us what you are inspired to do to keep our local environment clean and protect our natural resources!
Students, Grade K-12, are asked to consider what they can do today to help preserve the paradise that we and the local wildlife call home. Thirteen winners (includes a cover winner) will have their artwork and portrait photo featured in a full-color 2026 calendar to be released in summer of 2025. The 13 second place winners will have their art featured in the calendar. We will also be choosing two pieces of art to be featured on the KCB cleanup shirts-the Great American Cleanup and the Coastal Cleanup.
